The Tigers have officially announced Kelly’s signing and Haase’s DFA, with t
he added detail that Kelly has signed a Major League contract.
老虎正式宣布以一張大聯盟約簽下了前響尾蛇捕手Carson Kelly ，同時DFA 陣中另一名
捕手Eric Haase 。
The Tigers’ deal with Kelly contains a club option for the 2024 season, accor
ding to The Athletic’s Cody Stavenhagen (via X). The option essentially form
alizes the arbitration control Detroit already held over Kelly’s services, an
d forces the Tigers to make a quicker decision on Kelly’s offseason fate.
Kelly’s club option is worth $3.5MM plus incentives, as per Evan Petzold. Th
is is less than the $4.275MM Kelly made in 2023, and less than the minimal rai
se Kelly would’ve received in arbitration, though it can assumed that Kelly c
an probably make up that salary if he hits his incentive bonuses.
另外這張合約還附帶明年3.5M的球隊選擇權，不過還有包括部分的激勵獎金，所以如果有
達標的話，預計能領到的會高於3.5M。

心得：應該就是來當Rogers 的替補的，所以另一名捕手Haase 就被取代掉了。
